That's what sucks about the WRX - in stock form, it is a turd on the highway.

It's helpful to look at WHP to weight ratios and WTQ to weight ratios.

Well, with that setup, you're probably not making much power over stock, if at all, without proper EM.

yah i realize that but without getting atleast a dp theres not any EM that will make a difference, so basically im running around essentially with a cat back and an airhog, lil better gas milage and a few more horses... nothing to shake a stick at

Point is, you're probably at ~160whp, since a stock WRX is at ~150-155 whp on the scale most people are used to, which is the Mustang dyno we, gruppeS, FLI, and D2 use

His torque/HP curves could also be wider than yours.
